|
 |
Author: Edited by Robert Pary, M.D.
Description:
This book, Psychiatric Problems in Older Persons with Developmental
Disabilities, edited by Robert Pary, M.D., is the most recent book in
the NADD Series. The research points out that the prevalence of
mental illness is at least as common or perhaps more common among
older adults with mental retardation compared to older adults in the
general population. Dr. Pary has assembled internationally renowned
experts in the field to contribute their collective knowledge on this
important topic. The book is designed to be a practical guide for
people who want up-to-date information covering a variety of areas
that address psychiatric aspects in older adults with developmental disabilities. |
